Reviews:

"I highly recommend the work of John Cunyus in his translation of the Bible."
Rev. Dr. David Henderson, Jr,
Past President, Baptist Ministers Conference
of Dallas


"I welcome the translation of the Vulgate and the emphasis on Wisdom Literature. The Latin language and particularly the Vulgate have had an enormous impact on the Christian Church and our liturgical and theological formation."
Daniel Cardinal DiNardo,
Archbishop of Galveston-Houston


"Out of many available translations of the Psalms into English, I find your translation the best: it is a very close, linguistically conscious translation of the Gallican Psalter – so good that it can not only help to disambiguate the more difficult passages in the English texts but also help those whose Latin is not good enough to be able to trace the intricacies of these early renderings into English. Since your translation is so extraordinary among the existing Modern English texts, I wrote a section in my book devoted to it . . ."
Magdalena Charzyńska-Wójcik, Ph. D.
John Paul II Catholic University

"John, your translations are splendid! I hope everyone will ask their local library to obtain a copy and buy one personally. I find your translations both direct and elegant and profoundly refreshing!"
Father Vincent Uher
Houston, Texas


"John visited our church as part of a book signing tour.He met with our adult Sunday school classes to explain why someone should be translating the Bible from the Vulgate. I was wondering that myself. His reasons are compelling. His translations are fresh and lacking the characteristic “stained glass voice” one often finds in reading the scriptures. I encourage John’s materials for study and devotional use, and commend him as an interesting and compelling speaker.”
Rev. Steven C. Digby
Odessa, Texas


"As I've said before, you've always been the consummate scholar and an incredibly rich thinker. The books that you're authoring are welcomed additions to the ongoing world of biblical studies – thanks for using your considerable gifts and talents to continue pointing people toward a fuller understanding of God's Eternal Word!"
Major Stephen George,
Chaplain, US Army


"What really pleases me as I read your translation is the way you have set it up and the beautiful way in which you have caught the essence of each verse with elegant English (simple and understandable)."
Dr. Robert Gartman,
Dallas, Texas


"John, thank you for Psalms! What a refreshing work! I appreciate your point about Christ in the Psalms being key to the early church . . ."
Dr. Larry Ross,
Garland, Texas
